I’m 370 lbs and today I had a doctor tell me that people who are skinnier than me are all like that because they work out and eat right. Can I get a roll call for the people who are less than 370 lbs and eat like shit or don’t work out? Because I’m pretty sure you exist.

Also, one time I had a doctor ask me “are you sure?” 4 times after I said I didn’t have any breathing problems. Like nah I’m just big.

I'm like 350 so I get it it fukken sucks man. Like 99% of people just eat without really thinking about it too hard, and they end up the weight they end up at as a result of how their genetics react to the diet that's available to them. Some get lucky and can eat the same slop I do and wind up 200 pounds lighter, and some will then choose to act like they're superior because of it. "Just eat only when you're hungry" yeah buddy I never fucking thought about that before thank you.

I used to be in shape too so its not like I've never seen the other side of the coin. I've always been a big guy but I was 150 pounds lighter and ran half marathons in my twenties, and even back then I had to work twice as hard to get half the results of my peers. The worst part is that even "in shape" me from ten years ago would still constantly catch shit for being visibly larger than average, so I guess at some point I decided that I was putting in all that work for nothing and just stopped.
